A New Clothing Trend?

Sittin' around again just thinking. This is starting to become a habit. I probably need to spend more time doing something other than reading, which usually gets me thinking more than usual.

Anyway, I was searching the internet for beautiful gowns to post on my Pinterest. What in the world is the fashion industry doing to clothing?! I saw high-end clothing that was sheer enough to be almost invisible. Beautiful suits, dresses, gowns, blouses, etc. All showing the full glory of a woman's body. I could not believe it! No sane upscale woman would wear something like that and certainly no woman over the age of 35 without a boob job. And please pardon me for being so frank, but it's getting ridiculous. Okay, okay, maybe the Hollywood-types...no, wait a moment, they definitely would wear that type of clothing. But I just cannot see making clothing so sheer your underwear shows. And, yes, that is the case in a lot of those designs. No professional business woman would wear what the designers are coming out with today. I think they're doing it to shock women. No husband would want his wife wearing something like they're designing. I'm sorry but I'm not going to post any of those dresses, blouses or gowns on here. If you want to see some, you'll have to find them yourself.

Then—and this is the most bizarre thing—they're designing clothing for the head. Yes, they're making sure they're following the politically correct designs for the countries that want their women's heads covered. Some look like anyone wearing it would be smothering. Is this what designers really think women want? Are they catering to some other country's idea of what women should wear? Puhhhleeeze, cut this out; it's disgusting. Some of the "headwear" even had the look of an iron mask. Some were so disgusting to even be mentioned here. What is this world coming to? Enough!

Treasures I Found Today!! :-)

I went shopppppinnng today!!!!!! Take a look at just some of the neat things I got.

I saw these green glass stones in a mesh bag and then in a pretty container at the store and knew I had to have them. I love the sea green glass color. Jack said, "You're going to buy those rocks?" Yes, Love Bunny, I am and don't even ask why because I haven't thought on it yet, but they'll be gorgeous no matter where I, your wife, puts them. Well, then that necessitated a stop at Home Depot for some things he needed - screws, straps, pieces of this and that and some such stuff that definitely isn't as wonderful as MY stuff. I waited in the car and listened to the radio while he shopped. Of course I lost my cell phone in the car and couldn't find it but Jack did when he came out. Sigh............

Then I found this darling little birdbath with the little birds on it in this gorgeous verdigris color. That is one of my favorite colors. It looks like your outside copper hose outlet that has turned a tad green/blue and rusty. I know you've seen it but this is darling with some roses I put in it to photograph. I may add something else or maybe more roses.

This is a closer shot of it from higher.

Oh be still my reckless heart!!!! I love this little "window" and I got it for 1/2 off!! What an unexpected pleasure. Jack is hanging it in our living room over the couch in the morning. It's wood and metal with a verdigri medallion in the middle and looks so pretty with the metal scrollwork. Tomorrow more treasures!
